A novel high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed and validated to simultaneously analyse all statins currently available globally (atorvastatin, fluvastatin, lovastatin, mevastatin, pitavastatin, pravastatin, rosuvastatin, simvastatin). A Venusil XBP C18(2) reverse phase column (150 x 4.6 mm) with a 5 μm particle size was used. The gradient conditions started at 25% acetonitrile, which linearly increased to 90% after 1.0 min, held at 90% until 6.5 min, and lastly, re-equilibrated to starting conditions. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile/water and 0.005 M (0.2%) octane sulphonic acid-Na (pH 3.5). The flow rate was set at 1.0 ml/min with a 10 μl injection volume. The HPLC method indicated linearity (R² =0.9999) within the concentration range of 0.2-206.4 μg/ml. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) values were found to be within the permissible criteria of ≤15% and ≤20%, respectively. Following an appropriate investigation of all the parameters for method validation, it was confirmed that the HPLC method was successfully validated and proven to be accurate to simultaneously quantify statins even in combination with other excipients used during the formulation of nano-emulsions and nano-emulgels.
